What did the political defeat of the Republican party in Alabama tell us as politicians?


It does not matter if you are Republicans or Democrats the results of the last elections in Alabama in which the Democrat Don Jones narrowly won with a margin around 1.5% to the Republican Roy More sends a strong message to the leaders of both political parties at the moment to choose their candidates for elective positions.

Betting that no matter who is on the ballot the win is always automatic, that assumption with the results of the last election in a republican state like Alabama must be thrown out the window with the unexpected victory of Doug Jones.

In a state like Alabana in which the 2016 elections where Donald Trump surpassed Hilarry Clifton by more than 26 points, which has been in republican hands for more than 25 years. This result tells the Republicans that the popularity of the president in any state that the president won in the last elections is no guarantee for any candidate of that party in the congressional elections of 2018 to win or keep his seat in the congress.

The electorate of Alabama with its vote unknowingly will force the Republican party in the future to seek candidates with morally more acceptable reputations, but this message will also diminish the chances of candidates with extremist conservative ideas in the Republican party to be nominated in the future to replace the moderate within the party that did not support Roy Moore.

Let's not fool ourselves the electoral defeat of Roy Moore before Doug Jones is a defeat for the more conservative side within the Republican party which is being led by Steve Bannon, but also to the extreme ideas of President Donald Trump.

The election of Doug Jones in Alabama increases the political power of Schumer's minority leader in the Senate and diminishes the president's maneuvering capacity to promote his agenda in the future.

Will the most extreme conservative faction hear the results of the electoral defeat in Alabama? Knowing the internal struggle between the different factions that are fighting for control of the Republican Party that means the internal struggle within the Republican Party will intensify considerably to the detriment of the Republican party at the national level.

The lack of unity of the Republican electorate in Alabama was the reason for the defeat of Roy Moore regardless of an increase in the intensity and percentage of the African-American population in favor of the Democratic candidate Doug Jones.

If we start from the elementary behavior of the population in that traditionally conservative state in their political positions and when choosing a candidate who shares their beliefs, the Republicans (GOP) are the only ones responsible for this electoral defeat.

A moderate faction of the Republican party did not support with the same intensity the senatorial candidate for Alabama who occupied the seat which was occupied by Jeff Sessions, contrary to that shown by African-American voters in favor of Doug Jones.

 Being against the establishment in Washington has its limits which should be a lesson against Steve Bannon and all those who think that the argument of the electoral campaign is the only reason why they should be elected.

The problems of immoral behavior presented by the victims of abuse of sexual harassment against the Republican candidate published by the Washington Post is the main story behind this electoral defeat of Roy Moore.

Allegations which offered the moderate side of the Republican party moral reasons not to support with their vote a candidate morally disqualifying as Roy More. Summing up also the extreme ideas within the republican party that this conservative candidate supports.

With the result of the vote, the people of Alabama "listened to people from the outside" contrary to everything said by political analysts when talking about the political behavior of the people of Alabama who demonstrated the opposite of this type of belief.

How much this electoral defeat affects the republican party in the future? The base of the party who remain behind candidates with extremist ideas suffered a great defeat in the elections of Alabama, which would imply the election of more moderate candidates if the party wants to keep the narrow majority in the congress.

The religious believers, mostly among evangelicals with the unconditional support of a candidate morally disqualified according to the allegations of the victims, cast aside the ethical values ​​of the religious philosophy that they follow to support with their vote for Republican candidate Roy Moore.

Evangelical believers who had a tremendous blow to their credibility, when speaking of demanding ethical and moral behavior of any candidates in the future, they are also the losers in Alabama defeat of the Republican candidate .
